Snobunje...who else swears by these things?

[Backcountry Bandit]

used these things more then once last season! i dont think i will ever ride without one again. here's a link to one of my vids. used 5 bunje's to get one of our buddies sled out of the mountains. ONLY other option was chopper...lol. stupid key tether decided to short 2 valleys deep in to the ride!
we tried everything (cigarette tinfoil, dime...etc) to try and make a good connection for the key. wasnt happening. so we hooked up some bunje's and towed it out.

taking out the new HCR this weekend...if it warms a bit.....-38! will report back on how its running

I DO! Those things are a life saver (sled to sled version). I just always make sure to put my helmet on, just in case on breaks....

 

[Boondock]

I use mine once and a blue moon.... Its on the bumper of my sled though

 

[SRXtreme]

I don't own one yet. But I am definetly getting one. Thier priceless especially when riding in small groups or if you like to get really STUCK!!!..............SRXtreme

 

[cmantle1]

ill also add, they are great when taking women riding, saves alot of work and makes them happy, which makes you happy....

The only time I regret having one is when I forget it in the trailer. Bought another one this year so we can have them on two sleds. We have a ton of Snobunje stuff. Two of the shorter ones, one long one, tow straps (bumper to ski), the rope winch (not what it is called), shovels, and much much more. He does not put the Snobunje name on just anything. It has to work for him and be top of the line. You will never be disappointed by a Snobunje item. He also has great customer service.

We will never ride without one again. to whoever came up with the idea.

Whenever I see a guy with a snobunjie on his sled..... I run. I thought guys over 70 used them exclusively?

 

[blackcloud2k]

Live by mine. If you have ever had to dig people out constantly through out the day you are far less fatigued at the end of the day using one.

one word................phenominal

I prefer the hand held version. You can't always get a sled in where someone is stuck. With the hand held version you can always use a tow rope with it to make it into a sled to sled bunje.

 

[Hotchief]

I keep my handheld one under my seat so Fordman won't see it...

At first the guys laughed at it - Now we call it "the strength of 10 men"

Every season we seem to teach 1-2 new riders and it really saves your energy when helping a rider who is into trenching.

Plus "the strength of 10 men" is always with me & I don't even need to buy it beers at the end of the day...

the snobunje is just ok.
I have a buddy that has had a bungee jumping company for a long time. We tested for 3 years with different cords, number of cords used, and length. They work great. Alot better then the snobunje. loop it through the rear bumper on one end and a caribiener on the other end. it is not coming off. Don't have to worry about the hook coming off or have to take the slack out of the bungee before pining it to get the other sled out. It also takes up alot less space because it does not have the plastic tube over it.
It is also great with a extra length of strap to tow sleds out. use the strap for extra length between the sleds and the bungee cord smooths it out so it is not jerk, slack, jerk, slack all the time.
I wouldn't ride without one.

I carry both with me. Kind of a pain in the azz to haul, but when you need em their great. Kinda like a shovel, rarely used but needed.

BTW: I'm not over 70 and where we ride it's too deep to run. LMAO

 

[Vertical_Escape]

I've got the handheld as does a couple of the guys I ride with. I also carry 20' of 1/2" "bungee" type rope for use as described above. Also have the single rope snatch block for use with Snobunge to ease getting one out solo.

We found last year that by looping 2 handheld types together, passing hooks of opposing units thru others handles, makes a longer sled to sled hookup. BTW we ALL had helmets on when that was tested, plus throwing a coat over it to keep pieces flying to a minimum if it went wrong. It didn't, we did same thing several times last year with zero damage to either unit. Makes an easy job even easier, especially at end of day stucks when everyone is wornout.

I have the hand held one coiled around my bars.
Never leave the trailer without it.
I have used the shovel 3 times in the last 3 years.
I have worn out 1 snowbungee and working on the second one.

 

[Bman]

Carry one of each. Also have a spare tether key just in case one fails, too.

 

[IWantATurbo]

i got them both!!!! and love them both!!!

It takes some guys longer than others to learn how to work smarter than harder. "Wisdom will come with time Grasshopper".
Used the hand held last year for the first time. Worked great. I ride with the wife quite a bit and as big as her heart is she doesn't have the muscle to be much help when we're stuck.

 

[Mogul Molester]

Used mine twice today, have the handle version and leave it wrapped around my handle bars. If its not easy to get at you will hardly use it , Use that thing more than my shovel.
